Ditto that! Took my sweetheart there last weekend for what turned out to be a painful kidney stone (as diagnosed by them after an on-site CT scan). Quick, expert care... would go there over the UF/The Villages Hospital ER in all but very serious situations (in which case we'd likely call 9-1-1 and EMS would usually transport to UF/The Villages Hospital anyway).

FYI... the Trailwinds freestanding ER is associated with HCA, so any step up in care from there to a larger facility would typically be to the HCA hospital in Ocala (not at all a bad thing).
